Arranging Slots ands Numbering Interfaces

The F5000-A5 supports many types of interfaces, such as Console, AUX, GigabitEthernet, and

Ten-GigabitEthernet interfaces. This chapter describes how these interfaces are numbered.

Figure 2-1 Slot arrangement on the F5000-A5

The numbers 0 through 4 in Figure 2-1 represent Slot 0 through Slot 4 on the device respectively.

Actually, these numbers are not silk-screened on the device.

Numbering Interfaces

Except for user interfaces such as the Console port and AUX port, interfaces on the F5000-A5 are

numbered in the form of interface-type X/Y, where,

interface-type: Type of the interface such as GigabitEthernet.

X: Number of the slot where the LPU resides, in the range of 1 to 4.

Y: Sequence number of the interface on the LPU, depending on the LPU model.

Note that:

Interfaces on the same LPU have the same slot number X.

For each type of interfaces, the sequence number Y starts from 0 and increases according to the

sequence on the LPU (from bottom to up or from left to right).

The management Ethernet interface is permanently numbered as M-GigabitEthernet0/0.
